Does Android Pay work on Honor 8 pro? - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

When i try download Android Pay I have message "incompatible with you device" in Play market.

Have you rooted your phone?
I am waiting for an honor 8 pro to be delivered and I would be quite annoyed if Android Pay didn't work. Lack of NFC was one of the reasons I chose to phase out a 5x in favour of a new phone.

There is no working root for now. I tried to download Android pay, but it says to me the 8 Pro is not compatible.

Worrying.... is there anyone from Huawei in the forums who can clarify the situation? Google states that all non-rooted devices with Android 4.4+ are compatible with Android Pay. Even without NFC I could install it on my Honor 5x...

Android pay can be installed and it is working. Build DUK-L09C432B120. However Barclays Mobile Banking (UK) does not work and Huawei / Barclays already aware of it. But I won't wait just between my 14 days cooling off period and will send it back if won't be sorted out before.

Yep it's working for me as well. It can be installed and I have already tested it with a NatWest card.
No idea why the OP gets the error message when trying to install.

[Q] Android Pay on Note 3

SO Android Pay is out, and since we lost ISIS/SoftCard we have been without Tap and Pay. It says that Android pay should work on any NFC Android phone KitKat or above. I installed the app and made sure I have the latest Google Services, which I do, but I keep getting an Android Pay Unavailable error when I try to run it. Has Anyone had any luck. I have a Note 3 with stock Deoxed Rom Rooted and Xposed.
Link to Pay
Link to Services 8.1.13 - 238
Same issue for me. Actually found services 8.1.14(238) and get same issue and am stock. I have unlocked the BL in the past though if that becomes info we need to see to understand this. Would be curious what luck a 100% stock and never messed sorta T-Mo person would have.

It won't work on a rooted system. It also won't work if xposed is installed...even with root cloak. I think you have to be 100% stock unrooted and odexed. I really hope I'm wrong here, but that seems to be the case.

I am 100% stock and get Samsung updates and the like. I had rommed prior and so had unlocked the BL, but am now 100% stock again other than the BL security flag that knows I once had BL unlocked. Getting this same exact message.
I have to assume this fist release of Pay has yet to address the missing tap to pay sorta NFC stuff on our T-Mo Note 3's and is basically won't load on our devices as it knows it won't work. Probably why none of us have seen Wallet upgrade to Pay in the Play Store just yet or got the services 8 upgrade without doing it manually. They probably need updated still to make our devices work.
The SM-N900T never had a locked bootloader. You may be referring to the knox flag, which shouldn't matter.

Yeah...meant the Knox flag...other than tripping that awhileven back I am 100% stock again...recovery and all. Never realized the BL was always unlocked on this. I have just tried Google Services 8.1.15 and still the same error.....seems the base Pay app is still not compatible with all NFC capable hardware yet probably. I'm sure this is why I can load the new wallet app from Play, but still don't see the Pay upgrade to the old one.
New Pay app and still no luck...same Pay Unavailable error. This build of Pay may have added support for some devices other than ours though...
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-pay/android-pay-1-0-103131485-android-apk-download/
3rd play build still no good....the Play Store page for Pay now shows up and old Wallet is gone. The Pay page says my device is not compatible....so the NFC nonsense must will be an issue...so annoying they can't get this working.
Then they shouldn't say that it will work on any device with 4.4.4 and above with nfc because that is clearly a lie
Yeah....seemingly they should have said "Our goal is to" rather than it "It will" as if it would be good to go for everyone out of the gate.
Note 3 will not support android pay, ever...or samsung pay?
This is something I have researched for a while. It appears that the note 3 was built with an NFC not capable of host card emulation, which google wallet and now android pay depends upon. The work around I am hoping for is to pair a gear s2 with my note 3 and get samsung pay loaded somehow, so I can tap and pay with the watch. I was linked to a page by AT&T support that listed the note 3 as a non supported device on Google's android pay site.

Google Play Store - Device is not compatible with this version

Hello XDA!
Around 3 weeks ago, I updated my Nexus 5x from 6.0.1 Marshmallow to the latest Android version 7.1.1 Nougat. After one day, it suddenly crashed and my phone was stuck in a bootloop. Google knows about the problem and they said that this is a hardware related issue and that you can get your phone repaired/replaced by LG. I contacted LG, they replaced my whole mainboard and now I have a working Nexus 5x on Android 7.1.1.
Now to my problem:
Before all that I pre registered my phone for the "Super Mario Run" app in the play store and I've realised that I can't find it anymore in there. I tried to find the app on my phone by opening the Play Store link and now all I get is the "Your device isn't compatible with this version" error which hasn't been the case before! I even tried it with my girlfriend's Nexus 5x (also on 7.1.1) and for her everything works just fine!
A bit later that day I realized that this app isn't the only one which isn't compatible anymore. Until now it seems that I have this problem with every single one of Nintendo's apps and until now I don't know if any other apps are effected by this. The Play Store even shows me an ad about Super Mario Run and some other Nintendo app but when I tap on it, all I get is an empty list because none of this apps is compatible with my device.
As I mentioned above my Nexus 5x is currently running on Stock Android 7.1.1 and rooted.
Any kind of help is appreciated!
Similar issue
I have the same problem as you. I had also pre registered then I rooted my Nexus and then it doesn't show in my playstore. Playstore link says 'your device is not compatible..' I guess the problem with Android version. I had also upgraded from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2. So maybe they ain't releasing for nougat or maybe that is a later release.

Using galaxy watch with nob Samsung phone

I am planning to buy a new phone, pocophone f1 is an option, but I don't know if the galaxy watch will work properly with it. Any one has experience with pairing it to pocophone or other non Samsung phones? Thanks.
Mine is paired to an Honor 8 Pro. It paired right out of the box with no problems. Works much better than my old Moto 360 2nd Gen. I don't have Samsung Pay but I don't care about that.

What about recieving notifications on the watch and downloading applications from galaxy store from your phone?

I used my former S3 with a former Honor 8 and had no problem with notifications or downloading apps from Galaxy store. I wouldn't expect problems with the Galaxy.
Has anyone had their watch receive calls and your phone never rings and then when you turn your watch off phone calls go right to voicemail?

I have had NO issues with the watch and my Oneplus 5T.

If phone is not rooted, bootloader locked, and so play store device status is certified :
You can download and install galaxy gear app, from which you'll be able to pair and manage the galaxy watch.
It's what i done on my oneplus 5 : unrooted, re-locked. Everything works. As a non samsung phone owner, the only things that do not are :
- samsung pay
- integrated tizen email app
Or you can download the apk from apkmirror and use it with root. That's what I'm doing now. Samsung pay may or may not work, I don't use it so I don't know.
You need Samsung accessory service, the galaxy gear plugin and the galaxy wearble app. Mine works flawlessly with a custom ROM with xposed, rooted.

Can you download them without rooting, or must I root the phone?
You can do it without root but you need to enable the install from unknown sources option
they have a modded Samsung store to stop that root check they have magisk mods to hide root
I can confirm that this works on non-samsung devices. I get everything pushed to my watch from my phone as long as I have the notification for the app enabled at the time. The only issues I see with the Samsung Pay is if you don't have the app installed on your phone due to the fact that it uses NFC to make the transaction now so as long as your phone supports NFC you can use Samsung Pay as well. If not then you can use the ported version of Google Pay, but I wouldn't personally recommended due to the fact that it is ran by a third-party developer. As for root, I have not seen an issue or been lock out of anything in the watch due to being rooted so I can't confirm nor deny if it is fully root functional.
Rooted pixel 2 xl and everything works as it should.

Google Apps no longer running :(

Hey Folks,
Have a MatePad Pro 10.8 that had GMS and app installed and running via Googleifier and over the past few days the Google Core apps have all stopped running for me.
I have the device ID registered on the uncertified devices page and still no joy.
Nothing has changed with my setup, so I'm assuming that Google are enforcing their license and the US sanctions?
Is there any current way to avoid these restrictions?
Google Apps is working just fine for me on Matepad Pro.

It was working fine for me too from November and my Googleifier effort up until the 31/5.
Play store had stopped working earlier in May, but since Sunday, Chrome is closing on launch with an uncertified message too.
I'll take some time later this week to roll back the apps to earlier versions and see if that changes things.
Thanks for the input.

HUAWEI WATCH 3 + Android 13 (pixel 7 pro): sync doesn't work

Hello,
i just switched to a pixel 7 pro with android 13 and the sync with the Health app is not working (HUAWEI WATCH 3). Not even notifications and phone calls.
Has anyone solved the problem?
I have already tried to install the official versions of Health and HMS, and also the latest ones found on apkmirror but none of them work.
Thank you
Hi, same problem here.
Any solution?
Aa looks I'm not alone, I just spend 6 hours in support on huawei and Google but non of them can't help. I thing they even didn't know there is issue.
Have same problem with watch 3 pro.
But watch gt 3 pro works fine but on that is just rename d liteOs to Harmony Os.
Watch 3 pro has real Harmony OS that I thing will some issue with permission. It's just my guess but I hope someone find solution. I try it last 3 days to play around it.
Looks watch 3 and watch 3 pro (real harmony OS) has this issue.
Ps: more wierd is i gotalso pixel 6 pro and there watch 3 pro works completely fine, no issue at all.
I have the Same Problem no found the Failire at the monent
Same here. Please let us know if there's any info on this.
Mine doesn't get notifications with Pixel 7 Pro either
When do we think we will get a fix? I'd say never.
I have decided to sell off my 3 Pro. I think Google are making sure Huawei Watches don't function fully on Pixel Phones.
I'm facing the same issue with my huawei watch.
Exactly the same here. Pixel Pro 7, Huawei Watch 3 Pro, tried everything multiple times thinking i must be missing something. No notifications to the watch at all- calls, texts, alarms. Continuous heartrate and Sp0 won't work now. And watch won't sync. Sucks. Also have issues with viewing website imbedded video in auto-rotated landscape, and my CCTV cameras in landscape on the Pixel( Reolink and Camhi).
So i assume the watch is 1st issue, and the phone is 2nd issue. How annoying.
Anyone found any solution yet?
I realized my heart rate and spo2 levels also don't sync with my pixel 7 pro. Skin temperature, stress level and sleep records sync without any issues.
I went into watch settings and allowed each and every permission one by one.
No notifications whatsoever! I regret the day I bought this watch. And because of this, I will not be buying any otherr Huawei watch. It's a shame because I really like their watches.

Nah I tried all that too. I'm just assuming Google don't like Huawei anymore due to all the bans and stuff. I've just ordered a Ticwatch Pro 3 ultra instead whilst they're on sale. Hopefully that'll work ok using Wear OS.

I understand google not allowing their softwares on Huawei products but restricting people's choices of hardware is over the top.
I also believe Huawei is extremity slow in updating their softwares. Their watch was working fine with pixel 6 from what I see online. But Pixel 7 uses Android 13 and I believe Huawei Health and HMS Core doesn't yet support Android 13. We are also yet to see Huawei Pay in UK! I've paid good money for the watch not long ago and I can't see myself spending extra to buy another brand! I'll claim my free Pixel Watch soon but reviews doesn't look too good!
Same issue faced here. GT runner on both pixel 7 and oneplus 9R (Android 13 beta). I think Android V13 might not allow apps those are not from PLAY STORE to have the permission. Here's my workaround with a fresh start:
1. Install "Huawei Health" at the PLAY STORE (very old version)
2. Grant the permission in the system settings
3. Install "Huawei Health" at the Huawei website
4. Connect Huawei watch to the phone
Now your sync permission is still there. Btw, I dont know whether you can get the permission back if you cancel it now

This works.
Pixel 7 pro with android 13 cloned from Huawei P20 pro,
Huawei Watch 3 Pro.
Huawei Health app offered me an update and after I agreed it downloaded an .apk file. After the update, I deleted the pairing of my Huawei Watch 3 Pro with my old phone and started a new pairing, the watch generated a QR code. I ran a scan in Huawei Health and the pairing was successful. There is a problem, pairing breaks in watch ultra long battery life mode. This worked with the p20.
I saw Huawei released a new update for the Huawei Health application. Version: 13.0.0.320. Does anyone know if this solves the issue with Android 13? If not, I will wait with updating. Cheers!

This didn twork with pixel 7 pro and watch 3 pro.
Actually there is no issue with permission, watch just not have sync from phone. I can go to contact also use Internet through Bluetooth, but watch didnt have info permissions from app of continuous measurement or update weather or show notifications etc.
Looks like some share info missing or they didn't have.
Unfortunately pixel monthly update didn't fix this. Hope will app update soon to fix this.
Ps: my GT3 pro works completely fine, must be watch 3 series issue real harmony OS.
GT3 series use LiteOS renamed to Harmony OS.
Has there been any updates to the Hauwei health app to fix this problem?
I have the same problem , and i'm still lo0king for a solution.
I have been looking round the net & wondered if the problem was an out of date HMS Core software.
Has anyone updated to the latest HMS Core & then tried and see if notifications come through & phone calls?
on android 13 apps that are not in the latest play store will have limited permissions, just like huawei health ... take a look at this Youtube video
, a solution for that , and it worked on my huawei smart watch,.... for HMS which always crashes on android 13 use this version https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huawe...ces/huawei-mobile-services-6-0-0-305-release/
